COLCHESTER United will host League One outfit Charlton Athletic in a pre-season game next week.

The U's will entertain the Addicks at the JobServe Community Stadium in a friendly match next Tuesday (July 12), kick-off 7.30pm.

Charlton appointed former Swindon Town boss Ben Garner as their new manager last month, following the departure of former U's favourite Johnnie Jackson at the end of last season.

The game is Colchester's first home friendly of the summer.

They will follow that up with matches against the likes of Millwall (July 15) and Southend United (July 19), as they prepare for the new League Two season.

Prices for the game are £12 for adults, £10 concessions, £8 for under-18s and £3 for under-11s.

Parking is also available to purchase from the U's website, with prices starting at £6.
